I have really come to the conclusion that no matter what is posted, no mater how hard a fact it is, that fact will be either twisted so that it may be used in a liberal point of view or discredited so as not to be used at all. I have not seen anything of sound reasoning be posted by a liberal here...I am sure they can say the same for us Conservatives...so atleast we agree on something.

Somebody please lock this thread now!!

here in america, we haven't had to deal with that since the late 1700's. In fact, that was one of the reasons we kicked the british out.

but what do I know, I'm just a dumb liberal.
now, my question to you about this statement is, have you ever been a soldier in a foreign land? do you know first hand that this is all that soldiers overseas do in their spare time?

i didn't think so. actually the germans love us. the japanese love us. the koreans love us. do you know why that is? they understand that we are there to protect them from their enemies as well as our own and are a staple part of their economy as well. these countries that we have permanent bases in are called our allies:

al·ly ( P ) Pronunciation Key (-l, l)
v. al·lied, al·ly·ing, al·lies
v. tr.
To place in a friendly association, as by treaty: Italy allied itself with Germany during World War II.
To unite or connect in a personal relationship, as in friendship or marriage.



this forum is no place for ignorant stereotypes. this discussion wasn't too bad until you started calling names.

you may think it's effective, but it's not. angering people just makes them defensive and less likely to see your point of view.

Are you serious? I mean, honestly, up until now I could have given your long-winded, insulting, liberal views some respect because you probably got the information you base them on from SOME respectable publication..Nickelodeon magazine or Disney Adventures..I don't know. Whatever you read.
We have female troops over in those poor countries we are holding under our imperialistic military rule. I mean, sure, we spend the work week taxing the crops out of them and terrorizing the children but who are the female troops raping? And what VDs are they bringing home so I will be well informed when I need to go get treatment when it finally comes around to me.

I'm not sure "out of context" was a correct term ether. But, since we're generalizing a whole country by the acts of a handful of their cast-offs, why don't we do the same for the US. But instead of judging them by their peons, let's use someone important..like, say..I don't know, a president. Bill Clinton. A liar, cheater, faithless husband, self-serving..need I go on? Is that how you want to be judged?

Lets quote the ever popular Chris Rock:

Clinton damn near got impeached ... and for what? Lying about a blow job so his wife wouldn't find out. Everyone acting like he's this all holy person. He aint Reverend Clinton. He aint Pastor Clinton. He aint Maharaja Clinton. He's just Bill Clinton. He's just the President. He's just a man. A man is basically as faithful as his options. So he bought her some gifts ... so what?! You cant buy your friend a gift?! So what if he got her a job, half the people in here got their job because a friend recommended them. Hell, she was blowing him for 6 months, the least he could do was give a letter of recomendation. Now you see all these fat republicans 'I would never do such a thing ...' ... well no one is tryin to blow you! Aint know one tryin to give Newt Gingrinch some. It's all Hillarys fault. Thats right, I said it. It had to be said. Shes the first lady, she's supposed to be the first one on her knees to suck his dick. Because women ... you know your man. You know your man better than he know himself.

Besides ... what does a man who cheats on his wife have anything to do with running a country? What consenting adults do behind closed doors is their business, not the publics. That's why it's behind closed doors.

IT is not the cheating I am upset about...that is Hill and his business. The repeated lying is what pissed me off. All he had to say was "I got a BJ!" and this whole thing would never have happened.

He lied under oath. Anyone else would have been thrown in jail except for slick Willy. It is an unforgiveable offense...he had one hand on the bible and he still lied infront of the American people.
